Chapter 1869 A Calamity Beast in the Mid-Stage of a Golden Immortal
Chapter 1869 A Calamity Beast in the Mid-Stage of a Golden Immortal
It's this very moment!
Zhang Xuan made a move.
He did not use the Nine Nether Soul-Locking Whip.
What he used was the crystallization of the origin of spacetime.
That was a treasure obtained from the essence pool, which he had kept hidden in the ferry space and rarely used.
But at that moment, he didn't hesitate to take out a small piece and crush it!
"Time and space imprisonment!"
A tremendous force of spacetime erupted, and spacetime within a radius of hundreds of millions of miles around him instantly froze!
The larvae of the void mayfly were about to traverse again when they were frozen in place by this force of spacetime!
It struggled in terror, the forces of space and time fluctuating violently around it as it tried to break free of its restraints.
However, the crystal of the origin of time and space is of too high a level. It is a treasure nurtured in the stomach of the Holy Ancient Heavenly Dragon, and the origin of time and space it contains far surpasses that of a Void Mayfly larva in the early stage of Golden Immortal!
"Three breaths! I can only hold it still for three breaths!" Zhang Xuan roared.
Three breaths are enough.
Xing Can had been preparing for this for a long time.
The dark gold ferry transformed into a gigantic blade ten thousand feet long, carrying the full power of a peak Golden Immortal, and slashed down fiercely!
"Snap—!"
The head of the Void Mayfly larva shattered, and a ball of transparent light flew out from the crack.
Unlike the previous tribulation cores, this tribulation core emanates a pure Daoist aura of spacetime.
Zhang Xuan stared at the Tribulation Core, a surge of desire welling up in his heart.
But he knew that this tribulation core needed to be left to the Starry Sky Ancient Realm.
After all, this was the battle in which Xingcan and Xingyi contributed the most.
Xing Can then tossed the Tribulation Core to him.
"Take it."
Zhang Xuan was stunned: "This..."
"The Time-Space Tribulation Core is useless to me," Xing Can said calmly. "I cultivate the Way of Slaughter, not the Way of Time and Space. Although Xing Yi is skilled in deduction, her trapping formation requires the power of stars, not the power of time and space. This Tribulation Core is most suitable for you."
He paused, a complex look flashing in his single eye: "Moreover, if you hadn't used the Crystallization of the Origin of Time and Space to immobilize that monstrous creature, we might not have been able to take it down today. This Tribulation Core is what you deserve."
Zhang Xuan stared at him for a long time before solemnly accepting the gift, thinking that he would give it back to Xing Can and Xing Yi when he had other gains in the future.
"Thank you, senior."
In this way, the four of them cooperated perfectly and continued to kill the Golden Immortal Beasts in the Sea of Tribulation.
They obtained dozens of Golden Immortal Tribulation Cores alone.
It can be said that everything went smoothly.
However, this time the four's target was an Ice Abyss Ancient Kun, a mid-stage Golden Immortal.
When Xing Can revealed this goal, Zhang Xuan and Jiao'er were both stunned.
Mid-stage Golden Immortal!
This is their first time challenging a mid-stage Golden Immortal beast!
“The Ice Abyss Ancient Kun dwells in a frozen land deep within the Tribulation Sea,” Xing Can said in a deep voice. “Its attributes are the same as Fellow Daoist Jiao’er’s, both being the Great Dao of Ice Soul. If we can refine its Tribulation Core, it will be of great benefit to Fellow Daoist Jiao’er’s cultivation.”
A strange light flashed in Jiao'er's icy blue eyes.
The Great Dao of Ice Soul is her very foundation.
If she could refine the tribulation core of an Ice Abyss Ancient Kun in the mid-stage of Golden Immortal, her chances of breaking through to the mid-stage of Golden Immortal would greatly increase!
"How strong is this beast?" Zhang Xuan asked.
“It’s very strong.” Xing Can didn’t hide anything. “I fought it before, three thousand years ago. I was a mid-stage Golden Immortal and it was an early-stage Golden Immortal. I could only force it to retreat, but I couldn’t kill it. Now it is a mid-stage Golden Immortal. If I were to fight it alone, the outcome would be uncertain.”
“But this time, we have four people.” Xing Can’s single eye flashed with killing intent. “I will lead the attack, Xing Yi will trap the enemy, and the two of you will assist. The weakness of the Ice Abyss Ancient Kun is its speed—it has extremely strong defense, but it moves slowly. As long as we are not hit head-on by its freezing divine power, we will have a chance.”
The four set off.
They ventured deep into the Sea of Calamity, traversing countless calamity currents, and finally arrived at a frozen land.
It was a strange space.
The vast sea of calamity, spanning hundreds of millions of miles, was completely frozen.
Countless shattered ice rules coalesced into enormous icebergs, which floated slowly in the void.
At the heart of that frozen land, a colossal creature was coiled up.
Its head resembled a dragon's head, and it breathed out azure-blue cold air. With each breath, large swathes of space were frozen.
Around it, countless small ice-type monsters swam.
Those are its descendants, whose cultivation levels range from the early to the late stages of True Immortal.
“The Ancient Kun of the Ice Abyss…” Jiao’er murmured softly.
She sensed the icy Daoist aura emanating from the beast.
That is an even deeper source of ice than she is.
If she can refine the core of this calamity beast, her Ice Soul Dao will surely experience a qualitative leap!
"Proceed according to plan," Xing Can said in a deep voice. "I will go first to attract its attention, and Xing Yi will take the opportunity to set up an array to restrict its range of movement. You two will act according to the situation."
As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed out!
The dark gold ferry spun wildly, and a beam of light thousands of feet tall crashed into the Ice Abyss Ancient Kun!
"Roar--!!!"
Enraged, the Ice Abyss Ancient Kun opened its mouth and spat out a stream of azure cold air!
Wherever the cold air passed, even the void was frozen into a channel of ice crystals.
The beam of starlight collided with the icy air and was instantly frozen, turning into a giant ice pillar that floated in the void!
"What a powerful Ice Soul Dao!" Zhang Xuan thought with a chill.
The Ice Abyss Ancient Kun, a mid-stage Golden Immortal, possesses an ice-sealing power far exceeding that of the Jiao'er!
However, Xing Can was at the peak of the Golden Immortal realm, and although he suffered a setback in his attack, he remained calm and composed.
He flashed away, dodging the subsequent chilling aura. The dark gold ferry reversed direction, spewing out the Burial Immortal Black Mist, which enveloped the Ice Abyss Ancient Kun!
The ancient Kun of the Ice Abyss roared, its body radiating intense icy light. The Burial Immortal Black Mist collided with the icy light, producing a sizzling sound, and was actually frozen solid!
But this brief entanglement was enough.
The Star Instrument's trapping formation has taken shape.
Starlight chains coiled in from all directions, tightly binding the body of the Ice Abyss Ancient Kun!
The Ice Abyss Ancient Kun struggled frantically, unleashing bursts of icy light that crackled and froze the chains. However, Xingyi's trapping formation was too ingenious; although the chains were frozen, they did not break.
"Jiao'er, now's the time!" Zhang Xuan transmitted his voice.
Jiao'er was already poised to strike.
She took a deep breath, and the Ice Soul Ferry fully materialized behind her.
But unlike usual, this time she didn't attack directly; instead, she closed her eyes.
She is sensing.
Sensing the Ice Soul Dao of the Ancient Kun of the Ice Abyss.
That is the Great Dao that shares the same origin as hers but is far more profound.
If you can understand how it works, you can find its weaknesses.
Three breaths.
Five breaths.
Ten breaths.
The Star Orb's trapping formation has begun to crack under the struggle of the Ice Abyss Ancient Kun.
The starlight chains were crackling from the cold, on the verge of breaking.
Xing Can roared, and the Dark Gold Ferry expanded to its maximum size, unleashing beams of dark gold light that slammed into the head of the Ice Abyss Ancient Kun in an attempt to buy time.
But the Ice Abyss Ancient Kun's defense is too strong.
The beams of light that struck its carapace only left shallow marks, failing to harm it in the slightest.
"Jiao'er!" Zhang Xuan cried out anxiously.
Just then, Jiao'er opened her eyes.
A flash of understanding appeared in his icy blue eyes.
